Burglary suspect arrested after being recognised in security video... by his own FATHER

A Utah dad persuaded his son to surrender to police after recognising him as a suspect in a computer store burglary while watching the news.

The two were eating breakfast Friday morning when the father recognised his son in surveillance tapes that cops released of the burglary, said Woods Cross police Det Adam Osoro.

Jeremy Blair, 26, of Kaysville, turned himself in later that day to the Davis County Sheriff's Office, the Standard-Examiner of Ogden and Deseret News reported.

Det Osoro said: 'This case is very unique for a father to recognize that his son has a problem. It's a hard thing to do, but I think ultimately it's the best thing for the son, and I think the father sees that'.
